GyakaFAF Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 I simply cannot wait to get this year's may the 4th gift. It is an astromech droid. Can you beleive it? It is so EXCITING. I haven't felt this kind of excitement since opening grandma's gifts*. I mean really, this year the developers trully put some effort into celebrating Star Wars Day. They do not give us some cheap recolored item, not some junk that ends up like spam in a mailbox, no, it is M4-Y8 A-S-T-R-O-M-E-C-H! Can a Star Wars fan ask for more? I don't think so! Best Year for SWTOR 2019! *Gloves every year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suzsi Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 I hope this means they are super busy with the expansion. It needs to be epic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kodrac Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 I mean, it's almost like a tradition or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GyakaFAF Posted May 4, 2019 Author Share Posted May 4, 2019 It’s got a triangle lightbulb this time too! How creative! EA Jack and Bio Jill worked overnight, even against the black magic of the original game creators to implement that lightbulb. I mean, it's almost like a tradition or something. Yes! It is the best tradition ever. Who wants double XP, when you can get your very own astromech? Who needs new content when you can buy items like Major Anri's flowers in hair or Tau Idair's old man shaped 'lightsaber hilt'? WITH 50% OFF! Anyways, happy Star Wars Day everyone! And just to be fair: i'm not dissatisfied with the ongoing game changes, I actually resubbed after leaving the game for 2 years. But seeing this may 4th event reminded me some... 'good old times'.

GyakaFAF Posted May 4, 2019 Author Share Posted May 4, 2019 ...is my sarcasm detector faulty? Well, at least it detects something There are so many pet designs they could reskin....who are you people that keep begging for a dozen more astromechs? Show yourselves!! You have to learn to love these fantastic astromechs. For me, it was a hard lesson. First droid: "cool, I get a nice astromech droid." Second: "eh, droid again?" Third: "I don't want more astromech droids" Fourth: <sandpeople sounds> Fifth: "There has to be a hidden meaning behind all this..." Sixth: M4-Y8 love thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JattaGin Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 The thread title made me giggle, I give you that. The sarcasm about a free goodie feels unwarranted to me though. It's oibviously a tradition that they make an astromech pet for 4th May, as already pointed out. I think that's totally fine and I actually appreciate it. Better than nothing for sure.

PaxSithari Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Next year, they should do a BB unit - but shaped like a dodecahedron. It can even come with green color and something about "gamma' or "placeholder" written on it. Make it so, BW! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jozandra Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 (edited) You have to learn to love these fantastic astromechs. For me, it was a hard lesson. First droid: "cool, I get a nice astromech droid." Me too! Second: "eh, droid again?" I was a little more enthusiastic. Third: "I don't want more astromech droids" Why not? Fourth: <sandpeople sounds> <Imitates a krayt dragon roar> Fifth: "There has to be a hidden meaning behind all this..." Indeed. M4=May Fourth. Y7=year seven, Sixth: M4-Y8 love thread Right? They are getting better at how these look, LOL. Edited May 6, 2019 by Jozandra correcting quotes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I felt bad about this post after I made it. Like when I forced Vette to watch... Then I thought, well, if they surprise us by not surprising us, they MAY deserve some appreciation. Fortunately M4-Y8 is a good man. Or droid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
